Pastor Joan VanDessel and Darcy Dewling will be once again be leading a Wednesday noon Bible study.

We will be using the book  “Lies My Preacher Told Me: An Honest Look at the Old Testament”, by Brent Strawn as a jumping off point for our discussions.

In this concise volume, Brent Strawn addresses ten common “lies” or mistruths about the Old Testament, from perceptions of God’s personality (the “angry Old Testament God”) to the relevance of the Old Testament for Christians. Discover why stories and laws written thousands of years ago, centuries before Christ, are enriching and indispensable for modern Christians. Written by a leading scholar in Old Testament and designed for easy reading and group discussion, this book will expand your thinking about the Bible’s First (and largest) Testament.

Pastor Brent Strawn, a noted Old Testament Scholar and student of Walter Brueggemann recently preached here at Central so we thought it would be fun and timely to study one of his books.

Books will be on sale in the church office on the 3rd floor of $15.00
